"Brother Zhu Xian, my daughter, your daughter-in-law has been captured by Liangshan, you must find a way to save her!"
When Taigong Hu saw Li Ying leaving angrily, he talked about his own affairs again. Hujiazhuang was the weakest among the three villages. He had no choice at all and could only follow Zhu Chaofeng. Qinbei Pavilion
"I have my own thoughts on this matter. When the time comes, I will kill the thieves and save the people!"
Zhu Chaofeng said with a smile.
"Then when will it be, when Sanniang gets there..."
Hu Taigong said quickly that Hu Sanniang, a weak woman, was kidnapped and taken to the mountain by thieves. She was in danger at every moment. He could not imagine his daughter's misery for a moment longer.
"Grandpa, should we go directly to Liangshan to save people?"
Zhu Long looked at Taigong Hu and asked.
"But...but..."
Taigong Hu came to ask for blessings because he didn't pay attention. He didn't know how to answer this question.
"Brother Hu, you go back first, and I will make a plan to rescue Sanniang!"
Zhu Chaofeng looked at Taigong Hu seeing off his guests and said, Taigong Hu is already old and has no idea, so he can just coerce him.
Taigong Hu still wanted to beg, but Zhu's villager had already helped him out.
"Father, we have to save Sanniang!"
Zhu Biao looked at Zhu Chaofeng and said, Hu Sanniang is his unmarried daughter-in-law, but she is the most beautiful woman in this hundred miles.
"That woman was kidnapped by thieves and went up the mountain. So what if she was rescued? Are you still going to marry her?"
Zhu Chaofeng looked at Zhu Biao and said.
"this……"
Zhu Biao didn't know how to answer for a moment. Hu Sanniang had been defiled by a thief in their eyes. Which man would not feel uncomfortable?
"You want to achieve great things, how can you marry such a woman?"
Zhu Chaofeng looked at Zhu Biao and continued. He said that all three of his sons were very up to date, especially Zhu Biao, who was smart and skilled in martial arts. He was going to be a noble general in the future. How could he marry a tainted woman?
When Zhu Chaofeng and Hu Taigong agreed to this marriage, they wanted to unite the two villages and enhance the strength of Zhujiazhuang. However, as his three sons came to prominence, he no longer looked down on Hu Sanniang, a commoner woman. His own son was enough to marry an official. Other women pave the way for the future.
"But Sanniang!"
Zhu Biao was a little reluctant to give up. After all, Hu Sanniang was the most beautiful woman he had ever seen.
"Isn't she just a girl? I heard that Magistrate Cheng has a daughter who is as beautiful as a fish or a wild goose. She is a lady, well-educated and sensible. She is no better than a girl from the village?"
Zhu Chaofeng looked at Zhu Biao and said.
"But... that belongs to the prefect's family..."
Zhu Biao said with some guilt, his status was not worthy of the daughter of the prefect's family.
"When the Liangshan bandits are eliminated, you will be granted an official title. This will make you a good match."
Zhu Chaofeng looked at Zhu Biao and said.
"Ha ha!"
These words made Zhu Biao laugh, as if he had already seen his bright future.
"Father, after all, Liangshan is so powerful. I'm worried that Dongping Prefecture's support will be too slow. It's better to double the traps in the woods below and completely cut off the way up the mountain. Anyway, we have a mountain of food. It doesn't matter if we don't go down the mountain for a year."
Zhu Long said, Dulong Mountain is two hundred miles away from Dongping Mansion, and it may take several days for reinforcements from Dongping Mansion to arrive.
"That's a good idea!"
Zhu Chaofeng smiled and nodded.
…
Hujiazhuang.
"Father!"
Hu Cheng looked at his sighing father and saluted.
"It's exactly what you said. The people of the Zhu family have no idea of saving Sanniang. It's really heartless and unjust. I thought that I only agreed to this marriage because Zhu Chaofeng and I had known each other for decades. Now it seems that it is so. You are so wrong."
Grand Duke Hu sighed and said, before he went to Zhujiazhuang, Hu Chengcheng said that Zhujiazhuang would not care about this matter, but now it seems that his son is still more awake than himself.
"Zhujiazhuang has not taken our Hujiazhuang seriously for a long time. I have opposed my little sister's marriage for a long time, but you just don't listen."
Hu Cheng sighed and said that his father was very stubborn and always believed that Zhu Chaofeng was a lifelong old brother who could be trusted, but he never thought about Zhu Jiazhuang's inflated ambitions.
"What should we do now? Sanniang is still in Liangshan. If...if..."
Taigong Hu closed his eyes and did not dare to think about what would happen to his daughter.
"Father, don't worry. Sun Lei is different from ordinary thieves. His Liang Shanbo has never robbed civilian girls or done anything evil. If my little sister hadn't been impulsive this time, she wouldn't have been captured. I don't think Sun Lei would It’s not good for my little sister.”
Hu Cheng said his opinion. He was very fond of Liangshanbo. Since Sun Lei occupied Liangshan, the weather around Liangshanbo has been smooth and the people live and work in peace and contentment. The original thieves, bandits, ruffians, and bullies have either left their hometowns, or are not honest enough. If you dare to do evil again, you can still maintain the peace of the party.
"Is this really the case? Then how can you save your sister!"
Taigong Hu felt relieved and said, naturally it would be the best outcome if his daughter is fine.
"I will go to Liangshan and beg Sun Lei to let my little sister go. I will agree to whatever request he makes."
Hu Cheng said his thoughts.
"Then Zhujiazhuang!"
Taigong Hu said with some worry that they contacted Liangshan just to fall out with Zhujiazhuang.
"Father, choose the lesser of two evils! Zhujiazhuang wants to surrender to the imperial court, and he wants to use Liang Shanbo for meritorious service. We can't die with them."
Hu Cheng said, now they have no choice but to hesitate. If they make this choice carelessly, they may suffer the disaster of annihilating the family, but Liang Shan has already put down his words.
"Then let's be careful."
Taigong Hu sighed and said, he can now see Zhujiazhuang's ambitions. Having ambitions but no strength is seeking death.
Hu Cheng selected ten trusted bankers and took advantage of the darkness to go to Liangshan with a box of gold and silver.
"You are... Du Xing!"
"You are... Hu Cheng!"
When the sky was getting brighter, Du Xing and Hu Cheng, who were traveling at night, happened to meet.
"What are you..."
Du Xing and Hu Cheng pointed at each other and looked at the same carriages, horses and boxes. They already knew in their hearts that they had the same goal.
The two of them had a tacit understanding and didn't have any clear purpose. They just hit the road together and headed towards Liangshan.
"Is this Liangshanbo?"
Watching groups of people going to Liangshan, some carrying sacks of goods, some carrying cargo, driving ox carts... Anyway, they are all going to Liangshan Town with their goods for the market.
"Does this mean registration?"
Hu Cheng looked at the registration point beside the road. He had heard that Liangshanbo had rules for foreigners to register, but this was the first time he saw it with his own eyes.
"Where are you from?"
Lu Fang, who was at the check-in station, stopped Du Xing and Hu Cheng and asked.
"Dulong Mountain, Du Xing of Lijiazhuang, Hucheng of Hujiazhuang, are here to ask to see the great sage Sun Lei of Bo Qitian in Liangshan!"
Du Xing and Hu Cheng spoke.
"It turns out they are people from Dulong Mountain. You take them to see Leader Zhu."
Lu Fang said to a soldier.
"You guys come with me!"
The soldier said to Du Xing and Hu Cheng.
Du Xing and Hu Cheng clasped their fists in thanks and followed the soldier to Liangshan Town.
